Add a note or warning to a rule to be printed to the user

Sometimes during a migration, a command has to be run e.g. to reset a system running

I just tried to manually migrate gnupg from ~/.gnupg to ~/.local/share/gnupg and for one of my tests, I had to run "gpgconf --kill gpg-agent" before I was able to create a private key. They key agent was still looking in the old directory.

Does antidot support the running of commands during migration?

Not right now. I am parted about running commands. On one hand it will make this tool a lot powerful and I am sure there are other use cases as well. On the other hand, it will introduce security issues and will make this tool more like a script runner. I did think about adding the option to include a warning or a note that will be printed for a specific rule. That will make it easy to let the user know this command needs to be run after the migration.

I agree with you about it being a security issue, good call on that.

I like the idea to inform the user to run the commands after migration, it keeps the user in control too.

Very much like the current simplicity of the application. Adding friendly directions for the user is nice though.
